RRS helped me finish my first song.
After breaking through some insane imposter syndrome, I was able to finish my first track, "Monarch." Would love to share it with you all. Finishing up mastering this week, and would love any thoughts or feedback for final polish before I release.

@James Kilkenny I’ll take it! :) Hopefully will get the chance to work with a proper vocalist instead of Splice in the future. There’s already a few tracks with that vocal out in the world, but at least my fans can get a sense of my take on it. Big ups to Chris for his energy arc lesson! Helped a ton.
Digital mixer and audio interface
I have a really stupid question. Its it better to go from a digital mixer into the audio interface or just take the mixer out?

I’ve been running a Tascam Model 24 to input all of my outboard gear into my DAW, the only bummer is you have to use (two channels) stereo fader for the daw output. I’ve got a little scarlett 4i4 for monitoring

Takes away two inputs and is an unreliable way to monitor your master output from your daw (since it has its own fader)
Groove, Drum libaries and beat software
Hi y'all 😉 As a drummer i have anything from an acoustic kit, with multiple snares and cymbals, multiple mics, D-Drum triggers, an e-kit and a load of plugins, VST instruments, samples/loops and libraries, etc... Very much into the real acoustic thing, but always open/into hybrid and anything that's really groovy 😀 My favorites are Superior Drummer, EZ Drummer and BFD when using triggers and E-Drum. I have GGD, Hertz and such, but these are more metal oriented...I think, although GGD has some other libraries as well. I've noticed that some libraries work better, or more easily, with some E-drums. I also have a Maschine MK3 and Maschine Studio. Which is quite nice for beats. And I think it works fine with MPC beats, Maschine 3, Battery, etc.... I also have Loopcloud and Splice. I am very happy with the way Loopcloud integrates with my daws, and works easily with different tempos and notes/chords. What are your favorites, depending on what you aim for? What do you use for drums, drum replacement and beats? What do you use as software or favorite tool to make your beats? How good are your groove/beat making skills? Are you a drummer or need/want some knowledge/skills on rhythmic theory and such?

MPC XL and MPC Live are my weapons. Got piles of sample packs and MPC expansions for my beat needs.

@Richie Drummer XO is goated. Damian got me turned on to that. It’s been a godsend for me
Mixing Samples
HI anyone knows how to perfectly mix a soul sample or any chopped sample for hip hop??

@Aziz Thrt Depending on the DAW you can use the built-in samplers. I'm an Ableton guy, and I could do these same techniques with Drum Rack, Simpler, Drum Sampler etc. Then add saturation, bit crushing and transient shaping tools in the fx chain or bus.

@Aziz Thrt Learn Drum Rack inside and out. It's almost like an MPC in the workflow. Each pad can have it's own set of devices, and you can assign plugins to the whole rack itself. Good luck!
